020: Creating harmonious colour combinations with Lisa Newport


Listen Later

I'm still a novice when it comes to creating colour combinations so I wanted to find someone that could help me learn more about colour and how to incorporate it into my designs and my overall wardrobe.

So my guest for this episode is the queen of all things colour and style, Lisa Newport of Lisa Newport Style. She is the founder of the 4 step Drab to Fab System which she developed drawing on her skills and experience in textiles, fashion design and her first love, make up.

Lisa certainly practices what she preaches and when I first met her at a networking event it was her fabulous use of colour in her outfits and presentation that made her stand out.

In this episode you will hear:
> Lisa's background and how she first started working with colour
> The common mistakes many of us make when choosing colours for our wardrobe
> The  benefits of having a personal colour consultation
> How to determine if you have warm or cool undertones
> How to get started adding more colour to your wardrobe
> The difference between tone, tints and shades
> How to create a colour palette and colour combinations

Useful links and resources:

> My Pinterest colour palettes board
